Set a large pan of water over high heat to bring it to a boil. While the water heats, use kitchen scissors to snip the chorizo into thin strips.
Chop the parsley and red peppers, making sure to remove any stray seeds from the peppers before dicing them.
In a large frying pan, heat the olive oil. Add the chorizo and peppers, along with plenty of black pepper. Cook for about 1 minute, just until the chorizo is heated through and its paprika-stained juices start to color the pan.
Before draining, scoop about half a mugful of the starchy pasta water from the pan. Drain the remaining spaghetti and tip it directly into the frying pan with the chorizo and peppers.
